Green Berets

Trivia: Even though the US military had a big part in the production of this film they asked the producer (John Wayne) not to credit them because they thought the movie was so pro-military that it bordered on propaganda.

Trivia: David Jassen's nickname around the set was "Klutzy." He couldn't walk three feet without falling over something.
